[Ramiro_Ruiz]Jamietanna[m]: yes, I don’t know if the problem is that is an empty link as you can see in this note test https://ramiroruiz.com/notes/1568153317/ (I have a lot to work on the markup and the layout).

Loqi[timmmmyboy] You can read more about how the service, Bitninja, that we use works at https://bitninja.io. The theoretical discussion of whether hosting companies should employ firewalls is frankly not up for debate here so if the answer for us is to drop our fire...

Loqi[snarfed] definitely understood @timmmmyboy! no one's proposing that you drop your firewall. we are suggesting that BitNinja may be harmful, though, so you might want to consider alternatives.
@Lewiscowles1986's mention of WAF was one good, practical sugges...

[Will_Monroe][snarfed] thank you for that suggestion. I see that Indieweb.org has a page for Cloudflare https://indieweb.org/CloudFlare. Do you have any other suggestions for resources that would help someone with WP site at Reclaim accomplish the goals I would need to have to enable services like Brid.gy and Webmention.io?

[Will_Monroe][snarfed] re the tutorials on Cloudflare, that's good to know. I will take a look. Although, introducing another layer of technology to ensure that Indieweb technologies work is not something that appeals to me. I teach undergraduate/graduate students and I'm interested in eventually bringing Indieweb and some of the DoOO ideas to those students. I want to have an Indieweb setup that would be easy for novices who are setting up their

[Will_Monroe]I'm going to watch the outcome of the discussion on Github and then make a decision about what approach to take. It may mean moving to a new host, it may mean deploying something like Cloudflare.

[snarfed]and yes, it's also not ideal for bringing to undergrads or other newbies. fortunately we have lots of much easier paths, including micro.blog! reclaim seems to be an outlier here in this indiscriminate blocking; the vast majority of other hosts we recommend (see eg https://indieweb.org/web_hosting) don't have this problem

[grantcodes]With those WordPress hosting issue, I wonder if there is a hosting service that lets you set up a fully set up site with plugins & themes already installed with one click install. Like the deploy to heroku button

[snarfed]honestly we should maybe only recommend WP as an intermediate and above platform. ie people should start on something easier and cheaper like micro.blog, and only "graduate" to WP or maybe Known after they have experience and want something bigger

[snarfed]i don't know what the demand or market for backfeed looks like - i'm not sure it would break even - but if they want to build their own, or host and sell bridgy and support it themselves, they're welcome to try!

vika_nezrimayaTrying to do some JS development lately, and I've got a dumb question. Hope you won't be angry since I'm a JS noob! I wanna use fetch() to upload data to the Media Endpoint and receive the URLs from Location header. I'm doing input.files.forEach(file => fetch(<...>).then(urls.push(<...>))), but how can I wait for all uploads to finish? :3

[grantcodes]Together doesn't have the problem because it has a middleware server in node. It's reasonable to support cors on a micropub server, but then you also probably need to users site and Auth endpoint to support cors too

vika_nezrimayaYeah, this kind of thing could come up with my older version - I had my own auth endpoint which allowed for controlled scopes. I could uncheck a checkbox for a suspicious app and it wouldn't be able to post things if I didn't want to.

vika_nezrimayaHm, maybe opt for same approach like Mastodon? If the user has entered their, e.g. Twitter, scan people they follow for IndieWeb people (i.e. people with sites linked from their profile and having at least an h-card and/or h-feed)

vika_nezrimayaHm. Thinking about implementing RSVP posts and a calendar on my site where every event I've posted/reposted/RSVPd to will be shown. But I need searching for this, and for searching I need to implement a different database backend I guess?
